“The idea of doing the sea fantasy rug was really something i’ve wanted to do for a long time. I’ve doodled all those different components forever, but to put it all together as a tapestry was a great exercise, and one that sort of happened over the course of years. I really wanted it to feel worn and weathered, kind of like the sea.” – angela

“In Susan Roston’s ceramic work she takes the hard shell of the material and creates the illusion of flowing and organic sea life. Rather than creating a literal translation of underwater worlds and their inhabitants, this self-taught artist focuses on the movement of life through water.

Kustaa designs surreal wool tapestries for his Hypnopompic exhibition. The designs take inspiration from the state of sensory confusion that exists between sleep and wakefulness, using the visual delusions experienced during this strange period of consciousness to inspire a set of intricate psychedelic tapestries, busy with distorted flora and fauna and ominous looking creatures.

I have been interested in textiles my whole life. When I was nine, my grandmother taught me to knit which occupied much of my time. I knit scarves and crocheted rugs for my Trolls. Vera, a designer of linens in the late 1960s inspired me to think about studying textile design.

Located on the eastern end of the house, the Orangery is a rectangular building defined by its high, arched, sash windows. Robert Beverly, a previous owner, built it between 1805 and 1812. In the 1860s, Edward M. Linthicum updated the building by adding a monitor roof and an enclosed walkway to the house. He also planted a Ficus pumila in one corner of the Orangery, which continues to grow to this day, draping over the interior of the entire space.
